Simple notes that help groups coordinate timing and expectations.
What to include in a message so we can respond quickly and accurately.
Images are used to communicate atmosphere and are not tied to a specific menu item.
A menu should be helpful, not cryptic. These notes explain common wording and how to ask for clarification.
Menus often use a mix of ingredient lists and shorthand terms for techniques. If you see unfamiliar wording, the best approach is to focus on the core ingredients. Proteins, vegetables, grains, and sauces are usually listed in order of importance, and terms like “roasted,” “grilled,” or “braised” generally describe how a main component is cooked. If a dish includes a condiment or a finishing oil, it is usually included to add contrast rather than to dominate the flavour.
If you are choosing for a group, aim for variety across textures and styles. One approach is to pick a mix of vegetables, one or two hearty mains, and a shared item that is simple to pass around. If you have a preference that affects what you can eat, sending a message with clear, specific details helps our team respond with accurate guidance. When in doubt, contact us and include the dish name and the part you are unsure about, such as a sauce or garnish.
Write down the dish name and the ingredient you want clarified before you call or message.
If you are sharing plates, mention your group size so we can suggest a practical mix.
For groups, the smoothest experience comes from setting expectations early. Choose whether you want shared plates or individual mains, and keep timing realistic. If your group includes different arrival times, consider meeting a few minutes before you sit so your order can be taken together.
When you contact us, include group size, preferred seating (table or counter), and any time constraints. This helps our team suggest options that fit the room and service pace.
Our dining room is designed for a steady pace. If you need a quicker meal, mention it at the start so we can guide you toward dishes that can be prepared and served efficiently. If you prefer a longer, unhurried meal, we can space courses so the table feels relaxed.
The most helpful detail is your target end time. That single piece of information allows us to coordinate the flow without interrupting your experience.
If you have a preference or restriction, clarity is more useful than broad labels. Instead of “no dairy,” it helps to say what you avoid and whether traces are acceptable. If the issue is a strong dislike, telling us the ingredient is still helpful.
The easiest way to get a clear answer is to send one message per question with specific dishes or ingredients. We use your information only to respond.
Arriving a few minutes early helps avoid rushed decisions. If you have accessibility needs, we recommend contacting us in advance with the details that matter, such as step-free access or seating preference, so we can explain what the space can support.
If you are meeting others, choose a simple plan for arrival and ordering. It reduces confusion and helps the team keep service calm and consistent.
Splitting a bill is easiest when the plan is set before ordering. If you know you will split by item or by person, mention it early. This helps reduce confusion and speeds up the closing steps of the meal.
For larger groups, keeping orders organized by seat can help. If you prefer a simpler approach, shared plates with a single payment is typically the fastest.
If you are writing in, a short checklist can speed up the response. Include your preferred date and time, group size, and any important preferences. If your question is about a specific dish, include the dish name and the part you want clarified.
Messages are reviewed during business hours. We use the details you provide to respond to your inquiry and keep a record for service follow-up.
These resources are intended to make planning easier, but details can change as menus rotate and service needs shift. If you have a time-sensitive question, the most reliable approach is to contact our team with the specifics. We will reply with current information and any practical next steps.
